The Vashon girls soccer team’s opening game was against a new member of the Nisqually League, Cedar Park Christian, on Tuesday, Sept. 4

The game was junior goalkeeper Lauren Ockinga’s first competition since suffering a concussion in a JV wrestling match in 2010.

Vashon lost to Cedar Park Christian, 0-5. Two days later, however, they defeated Cascade Christian, 4-1, in another home game.

The Pirates will play Life Christian next Monday in an away game.
